Exciting Summer Offerings!

Hello Fellow Therapists and Helping Professionals!

This newsletter introduces our newest member, Stacy Tusa, a psychiatric nurse practitioner with a breadth and depth of expertise. Stacy works with adults and teens, and is now moving into private practice. Below you will find more information on Stacy, as well as, our newest summer offerings. I am hosting a summer workshop opportunity for school age kids to experience mindfulness, entitled Mindfulness, Movement, and More!, and Cindy Crown offers a parenting support group with the renown Circle of Security curriculum. For professionals, Bill Denison is hosting an Introduction to Shadow Work. This is a free presentation for therapists offering an inside look at the potential for inner growth that is possible when exploring our shadow side.

True Balance hosted our first CEU Film Fest with Janina Fisher's Shame and Loathing in the Treatment of Trauma. It was very enjoyable to leisurely learn so much from a leader in our field. We were able to use it as the background for case consultation, and discussion. I hope we can offer another one this summer or in the coming fall, stay tuned!

I hope to see you or hear from you regarding your work, or in relation to the offerings we have here at True Balance. We all love what we do and there is great energy in collaboration!

Peace and Blessings,
Vivian
